MooSock port 80-blocked by proxy?

[Blizna]

Hi,
I have no experiences with proxy servers or so, could you please explain to me how is possible that web browser works correctly but my moosock program (which uses HTTP commands via port 80) doesnt? There was a proxy server on the testing machine. And would it be possible to go around this problem?

There are proxy specific stuff you need to send along with the rest of your HTTP commands for it to work. Webbrowsers also need to know that they are behind a proxy server or nothing works. I can't remember what those commands are so I'm afraid you have to look them up on the web.

Please if you could be so kind and direct me what should I look for-I absolutely dont know what to search. Alsi there is a hope that it could work somehow..?

No,

Im discussing how to get MooSock HTTP commands get to work when you are behind proxy server.

I was looking around and didnt find anything special fot HTTP.

Also when Im behind a proxy, I need to send my requests directly there. So that means I should connect to proxy server and send GET command there and the proxy does the rest? If yes, I only need to know how to find out IP adress of proxy server (difficult for me to test because I dont have proxy and dont have a possibilty to test it somewhere)

Tracert will reveal the proxy and may get blocked at a firewall if you are attempting to connect from a work environment.
Not sure about transparent proxies though.
